Shape to the Plate

Monday, October 10, 2011
My yoga mat…Smart Water…Frederic Fekkai hairspray….Champagne glasses. These are some of my absolute favorite things I use on a daily basis (well, maybe not the Champagne glasses! ha!), and they all have one detail in common: they’re all tall and cylinder shaped. My obvious attraction to all things tall carries over to my favorite Italian [...]

Fabu-Lips

Thursday, October 6, 2011
As the cold air slowly drifts into the city, our lips are going to be getting chapped.chapped.chapped. After attending Syracuse University {aka the North Pole of NY State}, my solution has always been to use this fabulous product by Sara Happ called “the lip scrub” {in Brown Sugar}. But, there’s a new kid in town [...]

The Good Apple

Tuesday, October 4, 2011
As we say goodnight to summer sunshine, slurping smoothies and flaunting string bikinis, we have to keep ourselves surrounded by something sweet. What says sweet better, especially in October, than fresh crisp apples? Between the apple picking trips I’ve got on the calendar with my girlfriends this month or seeing on FreshDirect that Honeycrisp apples [...]

A Ballet of Blue

Monday, October 3, 2011
Chanel {Le Vernis nail polish} There were so many colors jumping out at me as I was walking through the busy “racetrack” layouts of my favorite department stores in the city. New perfumes, makeup collections and palettes. All beautiful. But, I couldn’t help but notice one nail polish color that kept staring directly at me [...]

Travelin’ to the Catskills

Wednesday, September 28, 2011
I recently read an article in Travel & Leisure referring to the Catskills as “the new Hamptons” with its stylish restaurants, boutiques, and galleries. Right in our NYC backyard, you can quickly escape from anyone and everyone to this secluded jewel of New York State. Around the time the hurricane passed through Manhattan, my parents [...]

A Southern Caramel Cake

Tuesday, September 27, 2011
No one can resist a dense, buttery, not to mention a rich creamy cake. Whether it’s at a wedding, birthday, or any champagne cheers, I grew up celebrating life events on cake from the most fabulous baker in Nashville: Leland Riggan’s Dessert Designs. This bakery has been Nashville’s go-to bakery for at least 25 years (Leland made my Christening cake!) and catering to everyone [...]

Scrub ‘n Style

Monday, September 26, 2011
After traveling down South this past weekend, washing off my makeup with a fluffy white towel after a fun night out, and finding an exact replica imprint of my face on that once clean towel I thought to myself, “Wow…I am officially the worst house guest leaving my hostess’ towels looking like this!” So, I [...]

From one Baker to another: Boyfriend’s Beer Bread

Thursday, September 22, 2011
It’s time for some fall cookin’ y’all! A few “must-makes” on my list? Homemade Chilli, warm tomato soup…but after a weekend of watching college and NFL football, I opened my fridge to find bottles of beer left behind by my Romeo and friends.
